  • Garmin Vector 3S Pedal Power Meter. The Vector 3 single sided Power Meter pedals build on what Garmin learnt when developing its Vector 2 model. Gone are the external pods, as now the ANT+ transmitter is integrated inside the pedals. Also, the accuracy of the strain gauges has been improved to within +/-1% and the stack height has been reduced to improve cornering clearance Power Meter Pedal On One Side. Unlike the pros, not everyone needs detailed left and right pedalling analysis of a dual-sided system. Garmin‚Äôs 3S model takes your power output from the left pedal and duplicates it to provide you with your overall power reading. Designed to be quick to install and easy to use, the Vector 3 pedals bring you in-depth analysis and full integration with your Garmin cycling ecosystem.

No matter what type of bike product your buying, from the simple accessories through to the full setup of your custom built road bike, there are lots of important considerations that you should take into account, especially when you’re shopping online and unable to test the product first. This is especially true when you’re buying products like Power Meters.

Our aim is simple, help you get the very best products for your budget. Whether that’s Garmin Vector 3S Pedal Power Meter 2018 or an alternative, we’ll do our best to find you unbiased, genuine customer reviews to help you make your decision.

Price is the next and probably one of the most important factors of a purchase, so it’s really worthwhile spending a bit of time analysing the price of Garmin Vector 3S Pedal Power Meter 2018 and seeing how it stacks up against those offered by different brands or even other alternatives from Garmin.

The next stage we went on to, was to look at the price of products from the brand: Garmin. The average price was £232.29 and we found that the price varies right from as little as £8.99 up to £764.99 with Garmin products.

And finally we thought it would be good to give you an idea of Garmin products that appear specifically in the Power Meters category.
